Inner-city public transportation, including buses and Metro service, will be restored in full from June 1, with the COVID-19 pandemic resurgence effectively brought under control in Shanghai, the municipal government announced on Monday.

All residents in areas other than medium- and high-risk, locked-down and controlled areas will be able to leave their compounds freely and use their private cars from 12am on Wednesday.

Community committees, property owners' committees or property management firms are prohibited from restricting residents' movement in any manner, according to the announcement.
